   “Pubbeva me, bhikkhave, sambodhā anabhisambuddhassa bodhisattasseva sato etadahosi:

   “Mendicants, before my awakening—when I was still unawakened but intent on awakening—I thought:

5. 5

   ‘कोko नुnu खोkho लोकेlo·ke अस्सादो,as·sā·do कोko आदीनवो,ā·dī·na·vo किंkiṃ निस्सरणन्’ति?nis·sa·ra·ṇan

   ‘ko nu kho loke assādo, ko ādīnavo, kiṁ nissaraṇan’ti?

   ‘What’s the gratification in the world? What’s the drawback? What’s the escape?’

6. 6

   तस्सtas·sa मय्हं,may·haṃ भिक्खवे,bhik·kha·ve एतदहोसि:e·ta·da·ho·si

   Tassa mayhaṁ, bhikkhave, etadahosi:

   Then it occurred to me:

   ‘yaṁ kho lokaṁ paṭicca uppajjati sukhaṁ somanassaṁ, ayaṁ loke assādo.

   ‘The pleasure and happiness that arise from the world: this is its gratification.

   Yaṁ loko anicco dukkho vipariṇāmadhammo, ayaṁ loke ādīnavo.

   That the world is impermanent, suffering, and perishable: this is its drawback.

   Yo loke chandarāgavinayo chandarāgappahānaṁ, idaṁ loke nissaraṇan’ti.

   Removing and giving up desire and greed for the world: this is its escape.’

    As long as I didn’t truly understand the world’s gratification, drawback, and escape in this way for what they are, I didn’t announce my supreme perfect awakening in this world with its gods, Māras, and divinities, this population with its ascetics and brahmins, its gods and humans.

    But when I did truly understand the world’s gratification, drawback, and escape in this way for what they are, I announced my supreme perfect awakening in this world with its gods, Māras, and divinities, this population with its ascetics and brahmins, its gods and humans.

    ‘My freedom is unshakable; this is my last rebirth; now there’ll be no more future lives.’”
